The Vortex 6m hexagonal parasol frame is fitted with a high tensile PVC fabric canopy which is durable and designed for use throughout the year.

The 502 satin has a smooth finish, whilst the Stam 6002 has a slightly embossed surface. White 502 satin is our stock canopy.

Installation
The Vortex Parasol has a versatile range of bases allowing installation almost anywhere. In ground bases in cased in concrete poured on site provide a permanent fixing. Alternatively, bolt the parasol down using the deck plate to an existing solid concrete base or into the joists of a heavy duty timber deck. A Freestanding base is available complete with pre cut concrete slabs for weighting. When fitting Light & Heating accessories to the Vortex thought must be given to the provision of an underground power supply which should be routed into the parasol mast from below ground level.
